I have a 2014 P85D. I see remanufactured battery modules online for less than $1,000. What does remanufactured mean? Has anybody purchased one? Who could install these? Gen 2 I see vs Gen 1 which would be in my car? Thanks, I could use a battery and I wonder if this would disturb my free supercharging for life ..read more

I'm a happy and impressed FSD user who is curious about how Tesla gathers FSD data, filters it, and uses it to improve future versions. My first question is re Teslas not using FSD. Musk has implied that the millions of Teslas currently on the road are somehow providing the company data that will improve FSD. What data might this be, and how is it gathered and utilized? Second question is regarding cars like mine that are using FSD. I'm guessing that when my car is sitting... How does Tesla gather FSD data ..read more

I'm looking to see if we're in the running for the longest repair. It was 11 months for our X (got it back yesterday). It was in the lot so long the USB ports corroded, the adhesive for the displays liquefied, enhanced autopilot doesn't work anymore, and apparently started to smell enough where the shop added a box of baking soda to the car. But, hey, we got a free used box of baking soda out of the deal, and to pay for a car that we had no access to for almost a year ..read more

I was waiting in a line of traffic today when suddenly I heard a loud scraping sound coming from under the car. It sounded like something big came loose and was dragging on the pavement. I wasn't able to stop in traffic so I just kept going for about 100 meters. Eventually it just stopped. I thought there was a major problem and panic set in because my 4 YR warranty just ran out 3 weeks ago. Turns out it was just a rock or other debris between the brake rotor and shield...

I live in a cul-de-sac (circle) at the end of a street and currently when using FSD the car stops in front of my driveway, perpendicular to the driveway. My question is, is there a way to make 'parking spaces' (2 of them) in my driveway so that FSD will be able to park there for me? Can I tell the system or would I need to actually paint lines or such on my driveway? I always park in the same spot/space nearest to my charger, but my wife's car (ICE) is usually parked in the other...

So here's a headscratcher... 2019 Model 3 Long Range AWD suddenly blanks out the right side of the dock so no recent apps are showing. No matter what I open and close, the app never shows up in the dock. I have not added apps to the left side of the dock, so there are only three currently. I did a two-button reset and nothing changed. I go to my 2020 Model Y Long Range AWD and it loads my profile and the recent apps work fine. I go back to the Model 3, switch profiles, then back to mine and... Recent apps not showing in dock ..read more

I have 25k miles on my car. Piling on the miles quick. Not sure if the extended warranty is worth it. Will it cover suspension parts? Rotors, tires and brake pads I don't care about, those I can do. Anyone have good or bad experience using the warranty ..read more

I need some advice. I took my brand new 2024 S to be painted a different color. That was 2 months ago. The shop is reputable, and repaired and painted a previous S I owned. They have worked on cars I've owned for 40 years. My spouse, my kids, etc. As of today, the car is 90% painted, is in pieces all over the shop, the roof glass has been cracked. The shop owner has said he can't find any roof glass. The car is not anywhere near being done. How long should it take to get a car painted... 2024 S being painted ..read more

Great video. Project Farm puts out a lot of great comparison videos. TLDR: Rain-X is one of the best combinations of good performance, easy application, and low price, but there are other brands that perform a little bit if you're willing to spend more money and/or time applying them ..read more
